Guwahati: The proscribed ULFA Paresh Baruah

"We are giving them the notice to stop all their
operations in the state and leave within one and half months
from today," said an ULFA statement on the quit notice to
Shiv-Vani Oil and Gas Exploration Services Ltd.

the interest of the local people, then its impact will be on
the employees of the company," the statement by its central
publicity wing chief Arun Oday Dehotia said.
